The Decades EP covers a lot of musical ground, from Fats Domino’s “Ain’t That A Shame” (1955) and Jackson C. Frank’s “Blues Run the Game” (1965) to Neil Young’s “Old Man” (1972), Kath Bloom’s “Come Here” (1984) and Elliott’s Smith’s “Ballad of Big Nothing” (1997).
The EP features five cover songs, one per decade from the 1950s-1990s. Mara already shared the EP's 1950s cut, a Twin Peaks-inspired cover of 'Ain't That a Shame,' back in February on Fats Domino's birthday (which Flood Magazine called “brilliant” and praised for its dark twist on the original).
